Niknaks weight and pregnancy diary

[niknaks]

Hi again..... I'm not a new member to minimins. Infact you will see I have been a member for
Years in my profile. I had lost just under 4 stone. Began my journey at 17.12lbs and got down to 13.11lbs but after a summer holiday I gained some and went up to 14.4lbs. I've struggled to lose this year! But 5 weeks ago my boyfriend and I received great news that we are expecting our first baby I'm currently 9 weeks preggers and after Christmas I stepped on the scales and was sickened to see 14.11!!!!!!!! Got real weigh in at group tonight but obviously I'm keeping my pregnancy a secret until I'm 12 weeks and have that scan! I am absolutely terrified of gaining 3 stone back like I have read many women do during pregnancy.

I'm finding the fact I can't talk to many about my weight during pregnancy very difficult and hoping to find the support I need here! I am
Back on plan today. Hoping to shift some of
The Christmas gain before I enter into my second trimester of pregnancy.

Thankfully my midwife approves of slimming world and is glad to hear I shall be monitoring my weight throughout. I have been lucky as I haven't really suffered with morning sickness however I have had extreme nausea and some foods where a no go and just crisps would do! I think that stage has passed..... Fingers crossed!


So today
Breakfast was a fruit salad (melon. Pineapple, clementines, apple)
Lunch will be hard boiled egg, 4 ryvitas (heb) and fruit.
Dinner is Singapore beef and stir fry noodles.

I need to slip in my a choices so might have cheese on toast for supper using my second heb (allowed two on ee whilst pregnant)

What does everyone think?

Please say hello... Looking forward to speaking with you all.

Much love xxxxxx

Also forgot to mention I will be doing regular exercise. I was quite shocked to hear my midwife say that I can keep up with the gym just avoid toning certain muscles (stomach). So hear I am in a bike after a tone class (mostly arms and legs) doing half an hour steady pace.

Hi all.

Just back from the walk in :-( got a spot of gastro. Stomach is in agony! Upper tummy though thank god and doctor is satisfied baby is fine.

Off food completely due to nausea and cramping. Been advised to have a 'light' diet and avoid veggies for today. So had half a tea cake.... Let's see if that stays down. Got some cuppa soups and brown bread for later on. Don't really want it but I know I have to for the baby.

So I'm resting in bed for the day. Was meant to have a romantic day out with OH instead we had a romantic trip to doctors to talk about my loose stools! Haha!

Now film time.....
